  KEITH HARING’S MURAL ON THE NGV WATER WINDOW, 1984
  The unique set of 54 photographs, mostly taken by Geoff Burke, during the creation of Haring’s remarkable and temporary mural which covered every panel of the “water window” at the entrance of the National Gallery of Victoria. Several of the images were taken by a co-worker, as Burke is shown observing, making notes or in discussion with the artist. The images were processed by Kodak, are numbered and all bear the “FEB 84 M” printing imprint verso. The photographs are accompanied by the unique set of 35mm negatives from which the photographs were made. The right to reproduce also passes to the purchaser of this group. [NB: see also the accompanying letter of March 2008 to Geoffrey Burke in which the NGV confirms that he retains the copyright in these images.] (54 original photographs; 54 original negatives in 17 strips of 35mm film; 2-page letter to Burke [2008] re copyright in the above.].
